Substitute Bride and Her Husband Who Disappeared novel Chapter 116

With that, she promptly hung up the phone.

Interactions with Luna never ended well, and it was convenient to use Charlie as a shield. A free shield is always the best!

"Heehee, here you go."

Nancy returned the phone to Charlie with a chuckle. She was beginning to find that Charlie could be quite useful in certain situations.

Charlie raised an eyebrow, slipping the phone into his pocket.

He glanced up, his deep gaze meeting Nancy's eyes, which were curved like crescent moons from her smile.

"Nan, after what you've said, it's mandatory you spend tonight at my place."

Nancy pouted but didn't refuse, following him to the elevator.

Just as she pressed the elevator button, a "ding" signaled the arrival of the lift. The doors opened to reveal a slightly plump figure.

Nancy recognized the face and her heart sank. She suddenly felt guilty, as if her lie had been caught.

"Hehe..."

Luna waved at them, "What a coincidence."

Charlie merely nodded, keeping silent, and pulled Nancy into the elevator.

Luna deliberately positioned herself next to Nancy. Nancy tightened her lips and subtly leaned towards Charlie.

Charlie smirked, smoothly wrapping an arm around Nancy's slender waist.

Nancy stiffened, feeling immediately uncomfortable.

Caught between a rock and a hard place, she felt so miserable!

Charlie had taken advantage of her, and she couldn't even fight back. This feeling was so frustrating!

Thankfully, the elevator was fast. It soon reached Luna's floor. But instead of exiting, Luna pressed the close door button.

How much did he fear that she would switch Nancy and Vivian? Enough to keep a watchful eye.

She laughed awkwardly, taking Nancy's hand and led her to one side. With the kindest attitude she had ever shown, she smiled at Nancy.

"Nancy, Vivian won't be available to shoot for the next week. Starting from tomorrow, you'll be Vivian on the set."

"Me!?"

Nancy was taken aback, but seeing Charlie turn around, she forced a smile at him and then lowered her voice.

Luna, don't overstep your boundaries! We had an agreement that I would only help Vivian with the billiards scenes.

"Don't rush."

Luna gripped Nancy's hand, then stood on tiptoes, whispering into Nancy's ear.

"I promise you half of Vivi's pay. Plus, Director Grant is a big deal. Many A-list stars desire to work and learn from him, an opportunity they don't have. But now it's been given to you, be sure to seize it."
